This question put by a prospective
purchaser of a marriage license IM*
week sent a number of lawyers and
court house employees into the law
books. All emerged with the same
opinion. IA marriage license issued
on, any date is good at any future
time. ■ e 5
1 As one person put it, the license
is valid until the party or the second
part changes her mind. The law
will Mt permit an erasure so that
another name for the party of the
second part can be inserted. In such,
case It requires another $1.50.
. The law however ” does provide
that the marriage license certifi-
eate must be returned for filing
withing sixty days after the cere-
mony has been performed. If thi
part of the law to Mt complied with
the marriage certificate le invalid.
The quest for law on the particu-
tor question put brought forth a
story of a mere ar less humorous
vein. 7
In a certain county, not far dis-
teat from Wichita county,years
ago there lived a young man who
conceived the idea that he had ap-
prosched that milestone in life
where It would be entirely appro-
priate to take unto himself a wife.
His first step towards this M.,
complishment was to apply for a.
marriage license. The name of the
girl whom he fully intended to make
his wife was inserted.
As a way of a proposal the young
man engineered most skillfully to
accompany the young lady home
from Wednesday night prayer meet-
ing. The document that he had ac-
quired had been carefully tucked
in the inside vest pocket. :
Arriving at the young lady’s home
the man very abruptly produced the
certificate and handed it to the lady
with “What do you think about
that r
w^ Mmu.ne":
nd material arrived at the

A sans of 25 men has been
ured to construct the new bri

rents will start ae soon as the
avation work, in finished. It

the course of a year’s time three

What Kind of SEEDS do You Buy?
ti-R .Four-Flushers or Producers?
- I
BEFORE you take a partner, what do you do? You
1 P find out all about him. Is he straight? Is he a four-- -
flusher or a go-getter? What is his record? How will
his work show up at the end of the year? e
A When you buy seed you take a partner. If your partner
is a four-flusher you are done. No chance to change
horses in mid-stream. You are hooked up for the whole
season, for better or worse. You have got to use sense in
choosing your garden partner.- %
How can you tell pure-bred seeds? Not by looks;
1 you tell by reputation and pedigree. No breeder follows
the laws of heredity closer than D. M. Ferry & Co.
Imperfect plants are not allowed to reproduce on the
Feny Seed Farms. For size, shape, flavor, and for
vitality and productiveness, plants must meet the most rigid 1
standards. To be sure of pure-bred seeds buy Ferry’s
, 1 “at the store around the corner.” •
The price per paper is 10 cents—the smallest item of
cost on a garden list. Where else can you get so much
Ii for your money? Call it insurance, or just good business k...
, butbuy Ferys pure-bred Seeds.
For helpfat garden hints, for tested receipts that
query cook wants, for many evenings of pleasant
reading, send for Ferry’s Seed Annual. It is free. “ Tie
